GARFIELD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) -- NJ TRANSIT rail service was suspended along the Bergen County Line for several hours Monday afternoon after an NJ TRANSIT train collided with a bus in New Jersey.

Authorities say an NJ TRANSIT train from Middletown to Hoboken struck an NJ TRANSIT bus operated by Community Coach Bus near the intersection of Midland Avenue and President Street in Garfield just before 5 p.m.

15 people were on board the bus at the time of the collision, one of whom suffered a non-life threatening injury. Transit officials said none of the approximately 100 people on the train reported any injuries.

The Bergen County Line was suspended in both directions for several hours as investigators probed the crash.
